Our festivities started out on Christmas Eve as usual at Nana and Grandpa's house. The boys got to play with Marley and Ronin and have lots of fun. We couldn't make it to the Anderson side this year and we greatly missed them.
What a beautiful couple! We love Mamaw and Papaw! Here we are about to eat our traditional taco soup and cheese bread (one meal I look forward too ALL year!).
We were even treated by a visit from Ariel!! What a great surprise! (if you can't tell, that's really Marley under there!)
We ended our night with the tradition of opening our Christmas pajamas. The boys love their pajamas.
Santa visited!! He knew just what the boys wanted too, they were very happy!
This was not planned! Rhys went up and randomly hugged Andy and I actually caught it on tape. One of these days when they're at each other's throats, I will pull this sucker out and remind them that they really do love each other!
Andy trying out his new spy night vision goggles. He loved them.
Rhys and his puppy guitar, which he's barely even separated from since!
Santa visited Jammy and Pappy's house too!! (my parents)
The only other thing other than his guitar he's inseparable from; his wagon.
Isn't that just the cutest hat?! Why all the Mickey stuff? Well, Rhys absolutely LOVES Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, so he got a MMC Rocket Ship from Nana and Grandpa, a MMC in Space book, shirt, and socks from Santa at our house, and this hat and a singing plush Mickey at Jammy and Pappy's.
Andy now has a gun to go with his Halloween costume!! Pray that my tv stays in one piece!
After Jammy and Pappy's, oh wait, did I mention we went to church after our morning at home and then to the Heaths? I guess not. Well, we did. But, back to what I was saying, after Jammy and Pappy's, we went to Mom Mom's house (my grandma).
She is probably one of the most beautiful women on this earth and she'll fight you on that one. Try to complement her and she'll fight back with a comment about grey hair and wrinkles or something to that effect. I just hope one of these days I'm at least half of the woman she is!
The boys were all excited to see each other and had fun running around the house acting silly and playing spies. I guess being a spy is a big deal this year.
It wouldn't be Christmas without some honkey tonk/bluegrass/big band music to dance to. Each year we put this on and get to see our grandmother dance around the kitchen. She could dance circles around all of us!
We finally got the boys to settle down a bit by turning on a show. Whew, they wear us all out!
We ended the night with matching pajamas at Jammy and Pappy's house.
Merry Christmas and to all a good night!
